Spielberg's latest film is a stirring tale of a crusade to end injustice. Those looking for a war film about the Civil War need look elsewhere as this film teaches more about the politics. It is a history lesson, but history lessons can be worthwhile and enjoyable. The film often isn't the visual tour-de-force one might expect from Spielberg (nor his longtime cinematographer, Janusz Kaminski) and the film's ending 20 minutes are unnecesary, but whilst this isn't Spielberg's best, it works well. Any suggestions for movies (old or new) to review? Just comment below.
